I went to the ATI website this morning to download the new ATI drivers and i came across "AMD Catalyst™ Accelerated Parallel Processing ("APP") technology Edition" as one of the download options Link Then i read the release notes and on page 6 it very briefly described what APP is. Does anyone know what it actually is, what it does and if i need it for a 5970? Thanks
Well, ATI 10.10 changes the display settings to leave a warm colour setting. ATI know about this and have released a hot-fix, but everything still has a reddish tint to it, so I've downgraded to 10.9. 2,000 + views and no comments or replys, any input from anyone?
What version is downloaded & installed via Steam? I noticed that this version fixed the following for me as well Drag & drop encoding failed to install on previous versions & F.E.A.R.2 failed to run on previous versions I have a Sapphire Radeon 5570 installed
Isn't this something to do with OpenCL? It's the whole idea of something to take on nVidia's CUDA architecture. I know it should definitely help AMD in the folding@home scene, that's for sure. Basically it's something like giving a program access to a GPU without doing something graphical with it (much like folding@home).
that's a huge amount of views, probably because when i tryed to look up on this exact phase, this thread is one of the meaningful result. 10.10c has been released, here. but nowhere mentions whether it includes APP, nor can i find APP edition of this driver. AMD really isn't putting enough effort into this package, it will probably go unnoticed by developers, which is a huge shame.
To throw my hat into here... From what I gather from the download pages, the only difference between the APP and non-APP packages, is the APP package itself. If I had to guess, I would assume that the hotfix will fix the display drivers, without modifying the APP software. If you want to have both, just download the APP 10.10 drivers from the main site, then download the hotfix and patch over the installed drivers. Since the APP didn't have any issues to fix, there's no reason to add it to the hotfix. My take on it anyway.
From what I gather, The APP suite is just the regular driver with the inclusion of the OpenCL driver to the package. Quite what this allows isn't made clear, although if this is anything like CUDA for nVidia, perhaps this is the beginning of PhysX for ATI/AMD? TSB
I down loaded 10.10 and now I cannot see videos from youtube all I get is a green screen. :/ Was a OK yesterday before I installed 10.10 Any ideas? Edit: Rolled back to 10.9 and now it works...hmm
bit tech pretty much has google down to a science.. if you look up specific things, this site comes up top of the list a lot I hope amd stay clear of proprietary physics.. remember when amd had the best folding but they dropped that ball a long time ago.. open standard would kill physx off for good hopefully anyone remember amd saying they would have gpu physics with the release of dx11 chips? http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/foru...says-gpu-physics-dead-until-directx-11-a.html
it wasn't ati's fault on the folding, nVidia threw stanford incentives for using CUDA to skew it their way...
really? I thought intel was out to smash nvidia because of the whole sli deal.. but besides that- I'd think amd/ati would have something out for their new line of cards by now.. cuda been cruising along the last couple of years with real apps taking advantage
